wage which was below where it was when harry truman was in office. >> the truth is, the president is right. the minimum wage is lowner real dollars than it was in 1950. but it's also lower now in real dollars than it was under lyndon b. johnson when it peaked, nixon, ford, carter, george h.w. bush and president clinton. you don't need to go back six decades to find a real comparison. >> i think it's fallen in real terms, whether you reference it to truman or lbj. >> as for a plain old income disparity, the president sounded off on a widening gap. >> the top 10% no longer takes in 1/3 of our income, it now takes half. >> but is it really that skewed?
